Thanks Lindsey for this tutorial. I’ve watched it a few times and recommended it to my friends. You’re a good teacher thank you. From the number of views you have I can tell this video is needed. I had gelatos sitting in my stash for months and never used it until I saw this video. There are a lot of how to use gelato videos on KZbin but most are hard to understand, just a few and I mean a few, including yours were helpful to me. Thanks again.

Scribble sticks! I love them. They are not as creamy as neocolor II, but they melt like butter when you add water, and their color stays so vibrant! I wish there were more colors available though. Also Distress Crayons are great! Very smooth product and of course they are perfect to use with other distress products. Enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing!

by the way, I live in a dry part of Canada so just using a finger for spreading the gelato color is not enough. Depending on how want I the color to spread, I will either wet my finger on a wet wipe, or dip a paint brush in a little bit of water.

May Loo I live in Ontario, Canada ... don’t think it matters where in Canada in winter, you have this issue! I just bought mine and was disappointed how solid there are but misting should help. I have also seen videos where using Gesso on the cardstock first helps them spread better.🇨🇦

I bought "Play Day " super Gel crayons at Walmart back to school sale ..These are like lip stick too ..they are water soluble ..and also blend nicely with your fingers .these were a little under ten dollars ...one day i will have some gelatos .Mean while these are close in their nature .

Thank you for the video. It was very informative. The matte gel that you said was smoother than gesso, can you use just the matte gel to cover a page to prevent bleed through? Many people in the adult coloring channels have been using gesso to prime their entire paper for watercolor or other paint, but it has a gritty feel to me. Could I use the matte gel as a replacement instead of the gesso? Thank you in advance for any advice or tips.

Here’s the description from the Faber Castell website Gelatos are unlike any other product on the market today. This dynamic medium is a compact, acid-free pigment stick that glides on creamy smooth for vibrant color and coverage. Gelatos blend easily with or without water and work well on virtually any porous surface! Creamy, Vibrant pigment Water-Soluble Permanent Transform opaque Gelatos Colors into translucent tints or mists with water. Great for adding color and sheen to any surface, including paper, canvas, chipboard, wood, fabric, ribbon, journal boards and many others! Please note that they list “permanent” as a characteristic of this product. I’ve found that if you don’t completely dissolve the pigment with water then it can still be activated but if it’s completely dissolved then it is permanent once dry 😉
